1. instead of getting bogged down in the low level details and examples, you emerge with a clear sense of the big picture. 
2. If you jump straight to a speed of 4x... The material may sound so garbled you won't be able to make sense of it.
3. I nudged her and pointed to the man across the street.

bog down: get stuck, get slow down.

garble: so strange, been made some changes so that you can't understand anymore

nudge: touch somebody slightly

BTW: I like t9 input method on my NOKIA 1100!

The lexical structure of a programming language is the set of element rules that specifies how you write programs in that language. It is the lowest-level systax of a language, it specifies such things as what variable names look like, what characters are used for comments, and how one program statement is seperated from the next. This short chapter document the lexical structure of java script.

Everybody is talking about Twitter, also am I. Here is my link: http://twitter.com/ppip But twitter is stupid program, it can't work with MSN, it can't automatically get your nickname from MSN or Gtalk. When you change your nickname on your IM, you always means you have new ideas, that you want your friends know. It's twitter's job to record what you have said on your IM, with your work with form morning to night, not to force you write what you are doing on the web. But it seems to be no site to meet my need...

I want to install Vista now, cause Linux is hard to maintain. You spend too much time on the installation of software, no the use, not say improving your life. So, in the most time, its the Windows that help you get a better life. So, let me try vista this week.

I asked lawrence how to understand English better. I think there are two ways: first, more conversation in English; second, compare the translated texts with the origin.

But lawrence tell me, read more is the best way-- read an English magzine/newspaper everyday. And you don't need translate then into Chinese, assume you can't think in Chinese is better.

Albert Einstein once told his student a story to explain what is Relativity. He declared, "Put your hand on a hot stove for a minute, it seems like an hour; set with a pretty girl for an hour, and it seems like a minute."

There is also a "Einstein girl" for me on the world. 

I had a strange feeling that after I sit with the pretty Einstein girl for an hour, it seems like to be zero minute. I even can't make sure if she is existing on the world when she is out of my eyes. The time I stay with her is cut out of my mind because I don't believe it's true.

I told the story to Grace, a friend on MSN. She said she had the same feeling when she was separated with her husband. But she believe he is live somewhere on the world, and can live longer than she.

I think it's about faith. I don't have the same faith with Grace, I can't make sure how long can a pretty girl survive in the bad world. But, yes, she is there, somewhere on the world.

YQ told me,"May all the dreams that you dare to dream really do come true." MAY here means "wish" "hope", I think. Debby told me that ninety nine percent person on the world were driven by their life. So we should try to be the one in a hundred. Make your dream and hold it.
